If you are using codebehind, you don't need binding - although it's not very good pattern, it will of course work.

Why don't you just name your textboxes (urlTextBox, subjectTextBox, etc.) and use these names in the button click event?

        Process.Start(string.Format("mailto:{0}?subject={1}&body={2}", urlTextBox.Text, subjectTextBox.Text, ... ));

Of course this might easily fail, if user inputs invalid values.

Using bindings is another way to go, but in this simple case I consider it overhead.
